Everywhere At The End Of Time - Stage 5
Penultimate, 5th Stage of The Caretaker’s ‘Everywhere At The End of Time’ series charting severe levels of musical/mental deterioration and sensory detachment through four extended, smudged and hallucinatory side-long pieces.

Album highlights include ‘Baby Blue’, ‘Lost and Gone’ and a reworking of Jackson C. Frank’s ‘Blues Run The Game’.

Swaddling Songs
Classic, highly regarded and sought after acid folk / progressive rock album. Featuring girl singers Clodagh Simonds and Alison Williams, Mellow Candle never achieved commercial success they deserved spawning a legendary psychedelic folk-rock album akin to Fairport Convention or Fotheringay. Touring to support Thin Lizzy (Simonds played on Lizzy's album Shades of a Blue Orphanage) and Horslips, the band had a short lived existence. Clodagh Simonds later went on to play again with Mike Oldfield a…
The Words in between
The story goes that Ian A. Anderson and Gef Lucena were walking
the streets of Clifton, trying to come up with a name for their new
record label. At the time (the early 70s) Greenwich Village was
naturally the mecca destination for any musician worth his 12-string, so
the pair had taken to referring to their slice of Bristol as ‘Clifton
Village’ (long before this was taken up by estate agents across the
land, albeit in a very different fashion). And so The Village Thing was
born; home to …
L.A. Turnaround
First of a diptych of albums recorded in and influenced by Bert Jansch’s time in America. As the title suggests, this album was something of a contrast to Jansch’s usual style – taking in swathes of Nashville-infused pedal steel to sparkling effect. Produced in part by the Monkees’ Mike Nesmith, whose guidance is much in evidence on this perfectly measured slice of British country-rock.

Myrh On the first disc Roger Berkowitz a.k.a.

Panama / Suez
A-Ton is proud to announce Panama / Suez, the first EP by trio Oren Ambarchi, Konrad Sprenger and Phillip Sollmann (aka Efdemin). The three multi-instrumentalists collaborated with the goal of creating subtly shifting musical passageways: sonic routes that run between continents of musical category.

Wi…
